The next regular meeting of the OneOhio Region 12 Committee will be Friday, February 9, 10:00 a.m. at the John McIntire Library, 220 North 5th Street in Zanesville. The purpose of this meeting is to receive updates from the OneOhio Foundation related to the rollout of grant technology and to hear from community partners working to address the opioid crisis.

Buckeye Hills Regional Council serves as the administrative agent Region 12 of the OneOhio Recovery Foundation, which was created to distribute the local share of funds from the State of Ohio’s settlement with the pharmaceutical industry as a consequence of its role in the national opioid epidemic. Region 12 is comprised of Coshocton, Muskingum, Guernsey, Perry, Morgan, Noble, Monroe, and Washington counties. The Foundation works with local interests to support substance misuse prevention, treatment, and recovery efforts and invests funds to support these efforts for Ohioans into the future.

Questions regarding this meeting should be directed to Brad Peoples, Development Specialist, at bpeoples@buckeyehills.org or 740-376-7662 ext. 2270.
